Hustler White

1996 · 80 min

A grimy, deadpan prowl through Hollywood's underbelly, equal parts lurid, funny and oddly tender.

Directed by: Bruce LaBruce, Rick Castro
Genres: Romance, Comedy
Starring: Tony Ward, Bruce LaBruce, Kevin P. Scott

Tagline: See it with someone you've paid for
Overview: Reminiscent of Sunset Boulevard, the action is transposed from the silver screen's old backlots to contemporary male prostitution and the pornographic industry.
